AlliedPRA founder resigns after more than two decades

19/12/2011

James Hensley, European founder of AlliedPRA Destination Management, has resigned from the company after 23 years. The company, which was established in 1988, now represents DMCs from across Europe, America and the UAE.

George Pohle, CEO of AlliedPRA, said: “Jim’s considerable contribution in establishing the company’s business over the last 23 years is well-recognised. AlliedPRA is now entering a significant new era in its development as one of the world’s most successful destination management companies.


“Since Core Capital acquired AlliedPRA at the end of 2009, we have repositioned the company to offer a global reach for our growing international client base. We are proud of our people who are the best in the business and we look forward to working with our clients to continue to deliver truly remarkable destination experiences."

Hensley remains a minority shareholder of AlliedPRA.
